The Mission

Acropolis: Athens’ Innovation Festival is a brand-new initiative to promote Athens innovators and our energetic culture of creators and forward-thinkers. Brought together by a coalition of volunteers representing leaders in local business, academia, government and more — and spearheaded by Athens-Clarke County’s Economic Development Department — Acropolis will span the entire month of April. By knitting together events held by innovators all over the city, we seek to make Acropolis’ inaugural occasion the opening salvo in an ongoing conversation with Athenians and folks from the world around us.
